Title:
  [SRU] Puppet master fails with 'stack level too deep' error when
  storeconfigs = true

Status in puppet package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in puppet source package in Trusty:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]

  * puppet setup with storeconfig activated

  * On client run, master fail with "stack level too deep" error, and
  client do no apply any of its manifests

  * not all clients are affected, but if one client is failing it will
  fail forever

  * This issue is known and fixed on upsteam,
  https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PUP-1064

  [Test Case]

  To reproduce this issue, you need a puppet master with
  storeconfig=true running on Ubuntu Trusty.

  Apply the rules with "puppet agent -t"

  Without fix, you may face an "stack level too deep", with fix,
  manifests should be applied as expected.

  [Regression Potential]

  Minimal, fix is upstream and applied in new puppet versions.

  On our side, we have validated the fix since once week on a > 500
  machines setup and this error does not occur anymore.
